Gents,
Considering this boat. Coming off a 36' express cruiser and I need a bridge. What are some of the strenghs and weakness over the older F36? Will I have fuel tank issues? Does it still have glass over wood on the fore deck? It's powered with 454 Cruisaders. Are the hatches still wood? Window leaks?

Thanks Guys!

What year are you considering?

A 1989. This was the last year right? I'm checking it out today. Old to boats but new to this forum. I see a lot of sharp guys and really willing to share info. I'm willing to bet most guys have lived through any problems I may find. I wouldn't consider buying a Trojan without this forum. Tight knite group. I'm really concerned about spongy decks. Seems to be a cronic problem. I'll let you know.

Thanks

Spongy decks were a common proplem ( with more boats then trojans) but not all trojans had the proplem . my 77 F36 decks are still in great shape .
